During the last 15 years a novel decay mechanims of excited atoms has been discovered and investigated. This so called "Interatomic Coulombic Decay" (ICD) involves the chemical environment of the electronically excited atom or molecule: the excitation energy is transferred to a neighbor of the initially excited particle usually ionizing that neighbor. It turned out that ICD is a very common decay route in nature as it occurs across van der Waals and hydrogen bonds. The time evolution of ICD is predicted to be highly complex, as its efficiency strongly depends on the distance of the atoms involved and this distance typically changes during the decay. Here we present a direct measurement of the temporal evolution of ICD using a novel experimental approach.
